Not at all Babar with technique and style is much better than Rizwan! And over all score Babar is far ahead than Rizwan.

Peshawar Zalmi won by 10 runs....

"Zalmi snatch Victory in last 3 overs"
It could have been the other way around as they did when they had lost the steam in the first innings. But the last three overs went for 20 runs. It was practically all over once Azam got out. The innings started brilliantly for Islamabad as Gubraz rode his luck and whacked it everywhere. Wickets made regular appearances but everytime the spinner was on, Azam and some of the others took them apart. The cross seam deliveries were very effective and dew did not matter too much as Peshawar held their nerve and win by 10 runs.

Islamabad took it to the wire but couldn't finish off a 200+ chase against Peshawar. They started off with a flourish that was parallel to their opposition. Azam Khan played a scintillating knock that ran Peshawar close. But neither he nor his teammates could finish it off and the relief is palpable on the faces of Wahab and Haris.

Haris' 70 trumps Azam's 85 as Peshawar Zalmi stave off Islamabad United's challenge​

Irshad's 3 for 29 crucial in Zalmi's defense of 206

Mohammad Haris celebrates his fifty in unique style PSL

Peshawar Zalmi ........206 for 8 (Haris 70, Malik 38, Ashraf 3-33) beat Islamabad United ........196 for 7 (Azam 85, Gurbaz 46, Irshad 3-29) by 11 runs

Azam Khan and Islamabad United put on a mighty fight in trying to chase down 207, but Peshawar Zalmi's bowlers held on to seal their third win in a row. Mohammad Haris' blazing 32-ball 70 had led Zalmi to a total of 206, but while Azam batted, it was game on. Azam hammered 85 runs in 45 balls, but his wicket in the penultimate over of the chase ended Islamabad's hopes. Salman Irshad impressed with 3 for 29, and together with Wahab Riaz, he closed the game out for an 11-run win.

Haris started the game quick off the blocks, leading the way in Zalmi racing away to 73 runs inside six overs. His innings of five sixes and seven fours at a strike-rate of 218.75, however, was over before the tenth over when he failed to successfully play the reverse sweep to Waqas Maqsood. Yasir Khan (35 in 24 balls) and Shoaib Malik (38 in 23 balls) kept the innings moving through the middle overs, but three Faheem Ashraf wickets in the slog overs pegged Zalmi back. Zalmi could add only 41 in the last five overs, finishing with 206 for 8, the ninth 200+ total in PSL 2022.

Islamabad's chase was kickstarted by Rahmanullah Gurbaz's 19-ball 46. He hit five sixes and three fours, but a slower ball from Irshad had him caught in the fourth over. Four balls later, Riaz dismissed Danish Aziz for a duck, and in the ninth over, Mubasir Khan was also out for a 19-ball 21.

However, Azam, the No. 4 kept muscling from the other end, keeping Islamabad in the hunt. He smacked three sixes in an Usman Qadir over and then cleared the ropes off Ben Cutting and Wahab too to keep the required run-rate at around 11. What he needed were contributions from the other end but Liam Dawson and stand-in captain Asif Ali could not deliver much.

With 30 needed off the last three overs, Irshad was bought back for a final over, and he kept Azam off strike with Faheem Ashraf at the batter's end with his slower balls. That five-run over, including Ashraf's wicket off the last ball, gave the advantage back to Zalmi, and Azam's toe-ended heave off the 19th bowled by Riaz for 85 ended Islamabad's hopes. The tailenders swung but mostly missed, and Zalmi moved to third on the points table after Cutting finished proceedings.

Full-House Expected as PSL 7’s Biggest Battle Gets Sold Out - Karachi vs Lahore​

It’s a doubleheader today in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), with the current PSL champions taking on Quetta Gladiators in the first match and Lahore Qalandars locking horns with Karachi Kings in the second match.

Karachi and Lahore are the two of the biggest cities in the country and they have a rivalry like no other. Over the years in the PSL, Kings vs Qalandars has drawn huge crowds and massive viewership.

It’s the same story in the seventh edition of the PSL as the tickets for the return fixture between the two teams have already been sold out and the online ticket booking platform is displaying a “sold out” message for the game.

In the first leg of the tournament held in National Stadium Karachi, Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars played each other, with the latter winning the contest by six wickets.

Lahore Qalandars won the toss and decided to bowl first. Kings made 170/7 in 20 overs. Qalandars ended up making 174/4, chasing down the target with 4 balls remaining. Fakhar Zaman was declared player of the match for scoring 106 runs off just 60 balls.

Both teams have taken on different paths since then. Lahore Qalandars are second on the points table, having won 5 out of the 7 matches they played. It’s been a horror show for Karachi Kings who remain winless so far, having lost all 8 of their matches in this year’s edition.
